What a ridiculous question. America could not possibly have a Homer. The civilisation that could have given rise to an American Homer was wiped out when the settlers arrived.
Lots to chew on (and argue about!) in this symposium in PloughStack’s special issue for the 250th: Who is America’s Homer?
— Dana Gioia and A.M. Juster say it’s Robert Frost
— Christian Wiman and Jane Clark Scharl say we don’t have one
— Joseph Keegin says it’s Whitman
